Outside Vendors
02/13/04 at 13:33:18

Some of our routers specify "Outside Services". A PO for the outside service is written and referenced to the Work Order number. When the items are received from the vendor, the quantity doubles. This requires going to DC "Enter Production Only" and backing out the incorrect quantity. This is not an occasional problem. It happens on every outside operation.

What are we doing wrong?

Choosing a P instead of an S might be your only problem here.

For instance heat treat is by the pound, so if we have 500 pieces at 1000#, the conversion factor = .50 (pcs/wt). On the receiving end, make sure the weight is being received. Other than that, ours seems to work okay

Maybe our problem has to do with the way the router is set up. Eg. Operation 30 - Mill Operation 50 - Outside Service Operation 60 - Receive from Vendor Operation 90 - Receive from Work Order

If you have 2 operations set up, one to send the parts out and one to receive them back in, then that could be a problem. There should be one operation for the plating or painting or whatever the vendor is doing, devined on the Routing as a type P meaning Outside processing. Cutting the PO sends them out and receiving the PO brings them back.

(We didn't know that actually Issued the material.) The items were Issued again when the warehouseman "clocked in" the pieces on the operation number on the router.
